Mentoring for Professionals

When teaching students with exceptionalities, piano teachers need to be open and flexible working through learning obstacles that face students with special needs. If you are a teacher interested in teaching students with disabilities or working with a student who has obstacles to playing (learning, behavioral or processing), and are interested in improving yourself and your service, Dee provides mentoring packages through Skype. This is perfect for providing answers for both you and your student in real time, eliminating worry and frustration.

If you are a teacher who is passionate about teaching the piano but needs tools and effective strategies utilizing your student's unique strengths and needs for successful lessons, mentoring is an excellent solution that provides long lasting results. Mentoring will provide the support you need to motivate and inspire your students:

Some of the topics covered in our mentoring sessions can be:

First lessons with a new student: how to have win/win experiences

Student anxiety - crying, yelling

Students with transition issues (new books, new techniques for practicing or playing the piano)

Student impulsivity

Students who have difficulty focusing or attending

How to work with students that process differently

Memory issues - recall and short term memory

How to prepare your student for their first recital performance

How to teach students who have sensory issues that require the teacher to sit at a distance when teaching

Separation anxiety - how to help a student be comfortable from the first lesson

Students who don't seem to comprehend (process) what you say (looking at you and focused but still not understanding when you speak to them).

Students with weak social cues (start speaking when you speak, speaking in the middle of playing, playing while you speak, etc.)

Students who have difficulty with note learning

How to set up routines in the lesson room and for practicing at home

Any issue you might have that is impeding your student's growth during piano lessons.
